I can't until I hear back from Damon.

I don't think it is an issue. Things like hardware recognition, partitioning
are not hugely different & we don't really have time. I'd sooner set up a
"Mandrake install" demo & do a clean install every hour or so for people to see
& discuss as we do it than just do the one presentation.

Does anyone think this is worth doing? Mandrake, Debian, what?????

Nope. We still need to sort this out. If we only get indicative numbers with no
contact details, then a summary on the web site is fine.

Contact details raises privacy issues, it may be simpler not to get them, just
tick the boxes & register. Dunno how we check for multiple regos from the same
person tho??? No big deal, just hope we don't get any idiots?
